At QMS, we can transform your property with our premium resin bound surfacing system that combines stunning aesthetics with exceptional durability. Whether you’re enhancing a residential driveway, creating an elegant patio and pathway, or upgrading commercial spaces, our resin bound aggregate solutions deliver beautiful, long-lasting results that stand the test of time.
Resin bound driveways and pathways offer significant advantages that make them the superior choice for discerning property owners. Unlike traditional surfaces, QMS DecoSurf features a porous structure that allows rainwater to drain naturally, eliminating puddles and meeting Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) requirements.
The specialist resin bound mixtures are engineered to withstand substantial weights, constant use, harsh weather conditions, and UV exposure without fading, cracking or loosening.
Resin bound surfacing is an extremely versatile and sustainable paving solution. Its unique permeable properties allow it to comply with Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) regulations, meaning that water can drain directly through the surface. This not only prevents standing water on your driveway or walkway but also helps to filter pollutants and reduce surface water runoff, which is beneficial for the environment. This natural drainage also significantly reduces the risk of moss and algae growth, keeping your surface cleaner and safer for everyday use.
Available in an extensive range of natural stone colours and finishes, our resin bound aggregate systems can be customised to complement your property’s architecture and landscape design.
Resin bound surfacing is exceptionally easy to maintain, freeing you from constant upkeep. Its seamless, non-porous finish means weeds cannot penetrate the surface. The only care it needs is regular sweeping to remove loose debris and occasional power washing to keep it looking its best. This simple routine ensures your surface remains clean and tidy with minimal effort.
QMS resin bound surfacing is engineered to be a hard-wearing and durable solution. The combination of high-quality aggregates and a strong resin binder creates a surface that is resistant to cracking and weathering, even in the UK’s unpredictable climate. With proper installation and minimal maintenance, a resin-bound surface can last for many years, making it a reliable long-term investment for any property.
Resin-bound surfacing offers a fast and straightforward installation process. It can be laid directly over your existing tarmac, asphalt, or concrete, which significantly reduces the project timeline. Even if you don’t have an existing surface, our experienced team can handle all the necessary groundwork to meet your project deadlines.
After installation, the surface typically cures and is ready for use within 24 to 48 hours. This timeframe can vary depending on factors like weather conditions, depth, and the size of the project.
Our domestic and commercial resin bound systems are incredibly versatile and suitable for numerous applications including:

Resin bound surfacing offers several advantages over traditional block paving or tarmac. Unlike block paving, resin bound surfaces have no joints where weeds can grow, saving significant maintenance time.
Compared to tarmac, resin bound driveways provide superior aesthetic appeal with countless design possibilities. While the initial investment for resin bound surfacing may be higher than these alternatives, the long-term benefits include reduced maintenance, superior durability, enhanced property value, and SUDS compliance. Additionally, resin bound surfaces remain cooler in summer than dark tarmac and won’t develop the rutting or softening issues common with asphalt surfaces.
After installation, your new resin bound surface requires a curing period before it can be used.. Typically, this requires between 24-48 hours to cure. However, this may differ depending on the weather, depth, thickness and size. Our installation team will provide specific guidance based on your project. We recommend planning your installation to minimise disruption to your daily routine.
Resin bound surface maintenance is remarkably straightforward. Regular sweeping to remove leaves, dirt and debris will prevent organic matter from degrading on the surface. Occasional power washing (at low pressure) helps maintain the vibrant appearance, particularly for areas under trees or with heavy foot traffic.
Resin bound surfacing is a long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing and durable surfacing solution, manufactured by mixing aggregate stones with resin. Once cured, the mixture creates a smooth and hard surface to boost your curb appeal.
Yes, resin bound surfacing is highly suitable for driveways, offering a blend of aesthetic appeal and functional durability.
The flexibility in design means homeowners can choose from a variety of colours and textures, enhancing the visual appeal of their property.
Resin bound surfacing is designed to provide excellent traction, even when wet, making it a safe choice for various applications such as driveways, pathways, and patios.
The unique combination of resin and aggregates creates a textured surface that enhances grip, reducing the risk of slips and falls in rainy conditions. While no surface can be entirely slip-proof, resin bound systems are engineered to minimise slipperiness by allowing water to drain through the surface, preventing puddles from forming.
